Broadside 2014 - The Games Part 1

The Rejects made it safe and sound to Broadside to play and display Posties, Russo-Japanese figures. He worked out a fictional game named The Battle of Shaho. The poor lad worked damned hard to get the game ready, also adding loads of extra's, the scratch built Observation Balloon, telegraph poles, village, fields, roads and even the frame that held the boards together. all that hard work paid off as the Rejects won "Best game at the Show"
I've got to admit we were all very surprised and very pleased! I'll post a few more pics of our game in another post.

Posties ridiculously excellent balloon stole the show!

The lads setting up the game, very quickly out came the drinks, God it was hot in there!!

Fran denied farting, but we all knew it was him!

Fran was at it again, so Postie punished him by digging his long girlie nails in his shoulder...

Rainham Wargames Club - The Taking of Akaba

Clint made all the buildings himself, and had the excellent idea of bringing a backdrop board, it certainly makes the pics look crackin'!!I did feel quite sick when Clint showed me all the poor camels stuffed together into a tiny box, Fran too a pic, I was too upset to???
